Hasbro’s Vinyl Toy Line: Mighty Muggs

12 Feb, 2008 cool stuff

So it seems like Hasbro is getting into the “designer toy” game. They have a new toy series called “Mighty Muggs” that looks equally at home in Wal-Mart as it does in Kidrobot. I started getting into this style when I moved to LA, and I guess most cool sub-cultures are destined to be appropriated by more commercial establishments. It wasn’t long ago that the legal chums at Epic threatened to sue someone over a custom “Munny” depicting Marcus Fenix from the game”Gears of War”.

Either way, the picture above is from a new Marvel line coming out in March. You can see the current “Star Wars” series on the Hasbro website.
